Not only are these recipes diabetic friendly, but they are delicious for the whole family.
Keep in mind that I am not a professional cook or chef,
but a diabetic (type 2) that after being diagnosed found a renewed interest in cooking with a new approach, healthy. These recipes are family friendly to give everyone a healthier diet. I hope you enjoy the recipes as they are added to this blog. Please feel free to comment, ask questions or contribute to this blog.

Heat oven to 375. Mix shortening, sugars, egg and vanilla thoroughly. Stir dry ingredients together, blend in. Mix in nuts and chocolate pieces. Drop tablespoon size dollops onto prepared baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper, bake 10-12 minutes until golden brown, but center is still slightly gooey. The cookies should keep well at room temperature for a couple of days, if you won't eat them that quickly, I advise keeping them in the freezer. (By the way, they are yummy frozen or warmed in the microwave for just 3-4 seconds).
